We rented a jeep for only 400 baht per day and would drive around Samui. So many great places to eat, our favourite restaurant was Sweet n Spicy in Maenam which had the most wonderful view over the beach, the staff was quite friendly and the food so delicious, we went for sunset cocktails. My boyfriend and I had a brilliant time and will be back for Songkran.

All in all i'm a good person, they say if you do good things then good things come back to you, and I've seen My Name is Earl, it looks convincing. So I now feel its time for a bit of good to come my way and having a lovely old dance and a pint of cider out of a plastic cup whilst being knocked from ear to end is the only thing I want to be doing this Friday night. make my dream come true or I will never give another tramp a wink again. Warmest Regards Ellie Gregory Andy,

Hello Matt :) haha... On the off chance that you take regular visits to a chiropractor(?) and you're charmless to the pleas of the recently disabled/dumped/impregnated/bored then I'll state my case (finally). My best friend of 15 years is studying to become a (legal aid) solicitor. In the five depressing years of study she has been through all of the above (ok not impregnated - she's a good girl!) and ergo deserves some good fortune generally. I'm a rubbish friend as I cannot afford to surprise her with ebayed/gumtreed tickets as I'm broke from working in development NOT to be confused with being a developer! But she would be equally happy if you took her for a drink as you seem like a nice guy, ok so this has turned into a matchmaking rant. Did I mention she's very pretty? Anyway good luck, it's a tough decision. Is there a word limit here? Apparently not so i'll wrap it up now. ps enjoy yr trip! :) Personally I’d take the foot rub from Matt! Hello Matt :) haha…

I realise this makes me sound like a complete loser but tis true. I absolutely love friendly fires with cream and cherries and choclate flakes on top and one day would love to say to my children and my childrens children when I am old and crinkly that this was the first gig I ever went to. Imagine that... My pa is always going on about when he saw the Sex pistols so this can be my very own gig story and Andy, you're name will forever go down in my family history as the cool radio guy who made it possible :) Unfortunatley I have never ever been to a real live gig.

Since then he has spent 2 weeks in hospital flat on his back unable to move at all having other people help him go to the toilet followed by the last 3 weeks inching around his house in a plastic girdle to which he is becoming alarmingly attached. We had hoped to meet up with another mate this Friday in his first proper venture to the outside world since the event, so you can imagine our disappointment/jealousy when we found he couldn't cos he was going to see Friendly Fires at the Forum... We've been trying to find some tix to buy off gumtree & elsewhere but no joy so far...please help! cheers.
